mispe:
I have read this doc Redirecting…
and setup VPN as described in the doc. It works properly.
A new netVM sys-vpn is created, on top of sys-firewall,
and I use it to provide internet access for fedora dvm.
It works properly.
But I could not login into some website, especially Google.
I use the same vpn, on other laptop, with other OS, to login to the same websites, and it works.
Did I miss something on my VPN setup ? which result on login failure ?
And after I reboot my laptop, the VPN installation gone,
so I have to re-install and re-setup after each reboot.
I think this could be better addressed in a separate thread. But in general, the VPN documentation you followed is not user friendly, unfortunately. There is even a discussion about that:

Current VPN documentation hosted on Qubes website is little non user friendly. I… have written documentation for myself sometime. I would love to create a pull request for VPN Documentation on Qubes, wanted to ask first if you are interested, Please reply here before closing this issue even if if it's invalid. the documentation will be even for cascading servers and running tor over vpn and also oriented toward more basic users to understand. Thanks.
There are better alternatives that I would try before trying to debug the google/restart problem. See the following discussion as an entry point (or look for VPN on the forum)
A fellow QubesOS user pointed me to this Github for fail-closed anti-leak point and click solution for using VPNs to enchance privacy from ISPs/Coffee shop Wifi.

It’s not my code, but I use it quite frequently.
